"I've had enough of you involving my father in such trivial issue that doesn't relates to him"Arthur shouted back at me.. Standing to his feet...
I wonder why am always finding myself involving his father in everything I say to them. This is so unlike me... But I won't back down..
"Arthur you of all people should be ashamed of yourself.. You're the oldest child of your father his only heir.. You have nothing as inheritance and no have nothing to show as evidence of your work.  You're literally, an educated illiterate.. The worst kind of illiteracy we have in this world.. Your brain is only active in deriving such devious scheme like Killing Eliska in her death bed.. instead of praying for her to recover so that you can stand before her and fight like a real man"I yelled at him and he stared at me dumbfounded
"A real man would not even fight a woman.."My sister Lorreta brilliantly added
"Thank dear... A real man should be able to uproot your family from Grass to Grace and let your money speak for you"I added...
"This is how God set confusion in the camp of the enemy"My brother Santiago said walking into our midst with a smile on his face.
I hate him too...

ELISKA'S POV
"My jewel" a very familiar voice rings in my head...
I walked slowly towards the voice
"Have you finally come to pass judgement to me???"I asked stepping closer to the bright light...
"No child, I've come to guide you out of this place"he replied and I gasped in awe standing before me is my father...
"Dad!!!"I whispered
"Eli, come to me"he urged me and I ran to embrace him happily.. I've been wandering alone like a lost puppy in this strange place but I've finally been found...
"You've wander for long Eli, you're not meant to be here now"he stated
"I know Dad.. I'm happy you found me.. Take me home with you that where I belong"I requested
"No child.. You don't belong here with me.. Your family is waiting patiently for you.. Go home to them"he requested
"No dad... No one is waiting for me.. I'm at peace here.. I don't belong there"I stated firmly...
"My stubborn tigresss.. There's a lot of unfinished battle, you have to carry your cross and succeed not hide here like a coward"
"Dad.. You know I'm no coward.. I'm an El Toro, we fight till the end.. My end has unfortunately come"
"You end is far from you child, your mom has been calling out for you.. Why do you ignore her???"he asked
"Because, I can't bear to see her sad face.. it breaks my heart"I replied
"But she's sad and ill, she needs you..."
"I know but I like it here, is it not possible for me to stay here with you.. I missed you alot"I said as I laid my head on his lap and he gently Patt my back...
"I'm tired dad.. My eyes are very heavy.. my arm hurts alot"I murmured as I groaned in pain
"I know, you need to rest"he suggested
"Something strange happened to me today... I felt like someone was choking me"I tried to explain my experience earlier today
"It happens at time.. Perhaps someone dear to you almost died. The person must have wanted to die to be with you"he replied and I raised my head..
"Really!!!!"I gasped
"Hmmmm... Did you hear the person's name or voice in your mind??"he asked
I heard his voice, I'm sure he called out for me.. But I also heard another person's voice saying Stanley was dying.. That means Stanley did not call out for me like I thought.. Maybe I just imagined all this things...
"You looked confused" my dad pointed out
"I am but it's nothing.. I do need rest"I responded flatly dismissing the topic
"He loves you child.. He wanted to die to be here with you"my dad said surprisingly and I stare at him in awe..
"You know him... Did you see him here???"I asked curiously
"I've always known him ever since he was a little boy, he had a thing for you.. Stanley is a nice young man..."
"He is.. But dad did you see him here???"I asked again
"Yes!!! I sent him back but I'm not sure he recognized me.. I convinced him that you went back to earth and he ran back happily"
"Hmmmm... He hated me alot.  I'm sure Ted asked him to find me"I stated and I rested my head on my father's lap again
"Rest child..  Follow your heart, it will guide you to the right path and remember listen to the voice in your mind.. It's the voice of your heart.. I love you Eliska"his voice began to vanish bit by bit as darkness over came me...
